Perfect for the recently diagnosed child or sibling
As there was no description or outline of the content of this book, I had expected from the title that it was aimed at at adults/parents/carers and would contain detailed information. This is not the case. However, I am far from disappointed, as it is the perfect book for a recently diagnosed child (including teenager) and his or her younger sibling(s). If this is what you are looking for - BUY IT.

Very easy to understand, isn't it ?
Gunilla Gerland writes everything so briefly that I bet even Non English-speaking people diagnosed as Asperger Syndrome, High Functioning Autism, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder will get what the book is all about! Since I was already diagnosed, I could easily point out what kind of syndromes apply to me right now. Sudden Changes, clumsiness, stressful peer pressure; these are exactly what I have suffered for ages. And according to my doctor, I have some difficulties in reading implications, which still gives me a real headache!
So the point is you need to read this book whether you are diagnosed or not sure you have AS, autism, PDD, and any kinds of developmental problems. And if you find your problems that apply to you, you'll eventually know yourself as well as how to cope with them.
